The Millennium Bowl Award

The club has a prize, awarded at the Annual Exhibition, to the class member who is judged by the tutors to have made the most progress in the course of the year. 

The Millennium Bowl was donated to the club by a former tutor, the late Peter Connolly when he retired, demonstrating the close association between club and tutors which has been a feature of Bearsden Art Club for many years. 

Our current tutor:

Johanna Logan

Johanna takes classes face to face on Wednesday and Friday mornings at Baljaffray Parish Church starting in October. Johanna has set out her approach in the following statement:-

"I encourage pupils to try new ideas and mediums through demonstrations, while at the same time supporting you in your current medium and paintings."
